Disguising himself as ordinary people, he came to the city of Hui'anmen in the eastern capital of Luoyang with great difficulty, and Li Mi's envoy Yuwen Wen showed his identity to the defenders of the city, begging to meet Wang Shichong, who is currently the self-proclaimed prime minister of the eastern capital, and at the same time prepared to be humiliated, expelled and even killed.

Sure enough, Wang Shiyun, who guarded Hui'anmen, not only did not invite Yuwenwen into the city, but also scolded Yuwenwen, scolding Li Mijun for refusing Wang Shichong's good intentions to ask for alliances several times before, and now he is unlucky and comes to ask Wang Shichong again, and his face is simply thicker than the city wall of the eastern capital! The scolding also alarmed the Yuwen Army patrol who was patrolling outside the city, and the Yuwen Army patrol immediately blocked Yuwen Wen's retreat, and just waited for Yu Wen Wen to leave the bow and arrow protection in the city before coming forward.

Fortunately, just when Yuwen Wen begged to enter the city but couldn't, the foreign soldier Cao who was trusted and loved by Wang Shichong and joined the army Dai Zhou happened to pass through Hui'anmen, and after hearing Yuwen Wen's intention, Dai Zhou spent a lot of persuasion, and finally let Wang Shiyun put down the hanging basket and let Yu Wenwen, who had been targeted by his brother scout, take the hanging basket to the city. However, before the matter was over, Wang Shiyun immediately ordered someone to disarm Yuwenwen's weapon, and the five flowers were tied up and escorted into the imperial city to be handed over to Wang Shichong.

Originally, it was not easy to end up because he saw the notoriously ruthless Wang Shichong, but Yuwenwen soon found that he underestimated Wang Shichong too much, and after hearing Yuwenwen's identity, the old Wang family around Wang Shichong ← full of anger, shouting and shouting to kill, but Wang Shichong not only did not get angry, but also ordered someone to loosen the tie to Yuwenwen and give him a seat, and then asked Yuwenwen for the specific meaning.

Quietly relieved, Yu Wenwen hurriedly presented Li Mi's handwritten letters and valuable gifts, and explained: "Prime Minister Wang Cheng, please Mingjian, at the beginning, Taiwei repeatedly refused to work with you to fight against Yu Culture and traitors, all because he listened to the slander of Zu Junyan's gang and was misled by their short-sighted stupid words, and he rejected your kindness for a while. Now that Taiwei Li is now very remorseful, he has also expelled Zu Junyan and other villains from the shogunate, and is determined to apologize to you, and work with you to break the Yu culture and this traitor who killed the king, and asked Wang Cheng to remember the feelings of his colleagues, stop worrying about the past, and reconsider the alliance with our army with the importance of national affairs. ”

Yu Wenwen's low-voiced plea was exchanged for the unbridled ridicule of everyone in the Wang family, and Wang Ren laughed the most rudely and presumptuously, and said, "Misled by short-sighted stupid words? If you can listen to such stupid words, then what kind of Taiwei Li of yours can only be described as a rat's eye? ”

is still the same sentence, Li Mijun is really at a loss this time, so even if he is ridiculed by Wang Renze in person, Yu Wenwen hangs his head and is silent, and he is embarrassed to say nothing. However, to Yuwenwen's surprise, he only read Li Mi's handwritten letter once, and then after thinking about it for less than three minutes, Wang Shichong nodded and said, "Okay, I promise to form an alliance with you." ”

"Promised?!"

Yuwen raised his head gently, his face was full of disbelief, and the various words that were brewing in his stomach flew out of the clouds at once. Wang Ren and the others of the Wang clan over there were even more surprised, and they all jumped up and exclaimed and asked, "Prime Minister, you agreed?" What conditions did Li Mi set for us, and you agreed so quickly? ”

Wang Shichong didn't answer, but just handed Li Mi's letter to a large number of his relatives to read, and what made Wang Renze, Wang Shishi and others even more dumbfounded was that in addition to saying a lot of nonsense such as apologies and apologies on the letter, Li Mi just promised to give Wang Shichong's army 100,000 stone of military food free of charge after defeating Yu Wenhua or opening up direct contact, and then discuss the next step of the cooperation plan. So just after reading the letter, Wang Ren immediately yelled, "Uncle, this is too cheap Li Mi traitor, right?" 100,000 stone of military rations, just want to exchange us for sending troops and Yu culture and desperately, there is such a good thing in the world? ! ”

"Idiot! Shut up! You know what?! Wang Shichong scolded his beloved nephew angrily, first made a look at a group of relatives to shut up, and then turned to Yuwenwen and said: "Mr. Yuwen has worked hard from afar, please go to change clothes and bathe first, and then arrange a banquet for you, and discuss the details of the alliance by the way." Come and send Mr. Yuwen down to bathe and change clothes, so that he can serve him. ”

Yuwenwen knew that Wang Shichong wanted to leave him aside and talk to his family, but since Wang Shichong had readily agreed, Yuwenwen was too late to be happy, and he would still care about these small things as big as sesame mung beans? So Yuwenwen hurriedly thanked him respectfully, and then left temporarily with Wang Shichong's personal soldiers, but Yuwenwen just left on the front foot, Wang Shichong's eldest brother Wang Shishi immediately asked in surprise: "Fifth brother, aren't you joking?" With only 100,000 stone of military rations, you agreed to send troops? ”

"Lips and teeth are cold! To keep Li Mi is to keep ourselves! Wang Shichong replied coldly: "Although Yu Wenhua is incompetent, his army is too strong, if we don't send troops to help, Li Mi will inevitably be defeated by him, even if Li Mi is just driven to the Tiger Prison Pass by him, but as long as Luokoucang is taken by Yu Wenhua, we will never have peace." At that time, we will not only have to pay a more heavy price, but we may also invite a catastrophe! ”

"We have a brother-in-law to help." Wang Ren shouted: "My brother-in-law has already promised to send troops to help us, even if Li Mi is destroyed by Yu Wenhua and Pifu, my brother-in-law will send troops to help us." ”

"Idiot!" Wang Shichong scolded again, hummed and said: "If Li Mi is a jackal, your brother-in-law is a hungry tiger, the jackal is still a fight, how can we resist the hungry tiger pounce on us?" ”

"Fifth brother, do you mean to say that Chen Yingliang is fake for helping us, and is it true to take the opportunity to annex us?" Wang Shiheng, the second eldest of the Wang family, asked cautiously.

"You think he can't do such a thing?" Wang Shichong sneered even more, with anger in his tone, and said: "Not to mention whether he will really send troops, even if he will really send troops to help, it will definitely be until we and Li Mi take turns to consume Yu Wenhua and the traitors, and his vitality will be greatly injured, and then it will be the best time for him to send troops." At that time, once Yu Wenhua, who was greatly injured, was destroyed by him, he would immediately turn the spearhead, destroy Li Mi, destroy us, and annex the eastern capital Luoyang in one fell swoop! Annexation of Luokou Canghu Prison! ”

After saying it angrily, Wang Shichong sneered and said: "Otherwise, why hasn't there been any news of the reinforcements that Chen Yingliang promised so far?" No matter how much our messenger urges, he says that it is being prepared? Let's push it again, the news that Tianshui Xue Ju and Wuwei Li Liang have joined forces to attack Guanzhong can come out, do you believe this? My son-in-law, using a smiling tiger to describe him, can still wronged him. ”

Considering that it is true that he has not seen half a shadow of Chen Fuliang's reinforcements now, everyone in the Wang family closed their mouths, and Wang Shichong said: "Although Li Mi Pifu is also a jackal, but this jackal eats people and spits out bones, and may not have the ability to eat us, and he joins forces to deal with Yu Wenhua and Pifu, in exchange for 100,000 stones of military food that we urgently need, it is also a good deal, at least it is much stronger than us dealing with Yu Wenhua and Pifu alone." ”

While everyone in the Wang family nodded, Wang Shishi asked timidly: "Fifth brother, what if Li Mi repents of his word and refuses to give us food in the future?" ”

Wang Shichong smiled and said with a smile: "Don't worry about this, Li Mi will never dare to go back on his word!" Even if there is no threat from Yu Wenhua and Pifu, he doesn't dare to play this trick, because after destroying Yu Wenhua and others, he still has Chen Yingliang, a more terrible enemy, and he needs our help even more, so he doesn't dare to go back, he can only keep his promise to give us food, otherwise, it will be easier for Chen Yingliang to kill him again! ”

At this time, Wang Shichong was discussing with a group of relatives about sending troops to help Li Mi, and at the same time preparing a banquet and inviting Yu Wenwen to negotiate the alliance. The result was that Lang Youqing's concubine was intended, and Wang Shichong's asking price was not high, just raising the amount of compensation for military rations to 150,000 stones, which was much lower than Li Mi's reserve price of 200,000 stones, so Yu Wenwen, who was appointed as a plenipotentiary envoy, also agreed. Then Yu Wenwen took the initiative to say: "Prime Minister Wang, our Taiwei Li has a small request, if you can agree, we are willing to give you another 10,000 stone of grain." ”

"What request?" Wang Shichong asked directly.

"Artillery." Yu Wenwen hurriedly said: "Please ask Prime Minister Wang Cheng to help us build artillery to resist the attack of Yu Wenhua and Pifu." ”

Wang Renze, who had a small belly and chicken intestines, immediately stood up, and immediately clenched his fists with both hands, Yuwenwen hurriedly said: "Prime Minister Wang, you also know, in fact, we also have an alliance with Chen Yingliang, and we also hope to change to artillery from Chen Yingliang, but the road is far away and the traffic is not all over, and it is difficult to have news in ten days and half a month, and the distant water cannot quench the thirst, so I can only ask the prime minister to help me with this." ”

Waving his hand to stop his family's words, Wang Shichong, who has always been stingy and stingy, was unusually this time, and nodded without even blinking his eyelids and said, "Okay, the old man will give you artillery." ”

Yuwenwen was completely relieved, glad that his luck was good enough, Yuwenwen couldn't help but say in his heart: "Duke Wei is right, Wang Shichong is not an ordinary person, he really has courage and courage, this time it seems that we can relax a little." ”

So, out of consideration of the death of his lips and the threat of the future of his bad son-in-law, after quickly signing a formal alliance with Li Mi, Wang Shichong sent someone to send Yu Wenwen and the pine cannon drawings to Luokoucang, and immediately began to arrange the dispatch of troops, attacking Yu Wenhua and sharing the positive pressure for Li Mi behind the attack.

Although it is far inferior to Hua and his brother in terms of strength, Wang Shichong still has a little capital in his hands, at least the backbone of the Huainan lineage he brought from Jiangdu is still there, these elites are actually not inferior to ordinary Xiaoguo soldiers in terms of individual combat effectiveness, and the weapons and equipment are even comparable, and they have always been used by Wang Shi as a reserve in the defense of the city, and his true strength has never been exposed, and this time, in order to put pressure on Hua and his brother in the field battle, Wang Shichong did not hesitate to invest in this elite army of about 8,000 people. Supplemented by a newly formed army of more than 10,000 people, it directly launched an attack on Jin Yongcheng, where Hua and his brother imprisoned the civil and military officials and the concubines of Emperor Yang of Sui.

Yuwen Army, who was accustomed to despising the opponent in the field, also made the mistake of underestimating the enemy, and found that Wang Shichong suddenly sent troops to kill Jinyong City, and the Hua and his brother henchmen Yuan Wuda and Xu Hongren, who stayed in Jinyong City, not only did not close the city and defend it, but also sent more than 10,000 troops very arrogantly, led by Xu Hongren out of the city to meet the battle, and Wang Shichong fought in Luoyang White Horse Temple.

The Yuwen army paid a heavy price for their light enemy, the battle formation has not yet been set, Wang Renze, the fierce general of the Eastern Capital, led three hundred heavy cavalry to charge, detoured from the flank into Xu Hongren's array, sprinted back and forth, killed and killed, fierce as flying, too light the enemy's Xiaoguo army failed to stop this cavalry with a dense infantry queue, Wang Ren, who was also armed to the teeth, broke through the three phalanxes one after another, and the right flank was in chaos. Then Wang Shichong immediately ordered the front army to attack, and before Xu Hongren launched a charge, he used 5,000 new troops to entangle the front of the Xiaoguo army, not seeking to defeat the enemy, but not giving Xu Hongren any chance to strike first.

If Xu Hongrenjun was the first to attack, then with his overall strength and rainbow momentum, even if he couldn't win Wang Shichong, he wouldn't suffer too much loss. But it's a pity that the treacherous Wang Shichong understands the truth that morale can be boosted, and from the very beginning, he aggressively took the initiative to attack, boost the morale of his own army, and exert psychological pressure on the enemy. Failure is inevitable.

The first to collapse was Xu Hongren's left flank, the right flank had been disrupted by Wang Ren, who was like a madman, and the front was entangled by Wang Shichong's infantry, in order to reverse the situation, Xu Hongren, who couldn't hold his breath, chose to order the left flank to attack and counterattack Wang Shichong's battle formation. However, Xu Hongren's army soon found in despair that what appeared in front of them was a Huainan army that was as well-equipped as them, a trump card army that was generally slightly short in stature but had more combat experience than them, Wang Shichong personally led the ace attack, took the initiative to touch Xu Hongren's left flank, like a torrent hitting an earthen dam, and instantly rushed Xu Hongren's left flank to collapse.

It's not that the soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army can't fight, it's that their opponents can also fight and know how to fight like this, it's not that the soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army are not brave and tenacious enough, it's that their opponents are braver and more tenacious, the Huainan infantry wearing thin leather armor back then even the Turkic cavalry dared to carry it head-on, and the people rode on top of the horse and raised their heads and saw blood with the swords of the Turkic cavalry, so that Chen Fuliang and Li Yuan and other heroes in troubled times were surprised by their appearance, and now they are wearing the most sophisticated armor in the eastern capital Luoyang, holding the sharpest weapon built with the power of the Great Sui world, There is also a local numerical advantage, if the Huainan army still can't defeat Xu Hongren's left flank, Wang Shichong in history is not worthy of staging the Black Eight Miracle in Yanshi.

In the tide of the offensive, the Huainan soldiers who were not afraid of death followed Wang Shichong's handsome banner and strode forward, slashing and stabbing the body with knives and axes, stabbing and stabbing with red eyes, just holding weapons to greet the enemy, the sparks of gold and iron collision can be seen everywhere, and the sound of steel friction is endless, even if it is seriously injured and falls to the ground, it is necessary to hold an enemy and die together. Since the Jiangdu mutiny, the officers and soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army, who had never encountered such a crazy and brave enemy, quickly began to panic, and unconsciously began to be timid and deserted, while the Huainan soldiers marched forward with great enthusiasm, and quickly broke down Xu Hongren's left flank like a tide, and then continued to rush towards Xu Hongren's banner.

With the defeat of the Xiaoguo army in front, it is even easier for the Huainan army to directly kill in front of Xu Hongren's banner array, and Xu Hongren, who relied on his whiskers to shoot the horse to obtain the transformation and reuse of his brother, saw such a crazy enemy rushing for the first time, and was immediately frightened that his face was colorless, and his hands and feet were weak, and he subconsciously turned his horse's head and ran towards Jinyong City. The right wing of Xu Hongren's army, which had been disturbed by Wang Renze, was panicked, and the generals and soldiers subconsciously ran away to keep up, which then affected the front army that originally occupied a certain advantage, so that they also chose to flee for their lives in a panic, Wang Shichong took the opportunity to order a general attack, and Xu Hongren's army no longer had any hope of turning the tables.

Hearing that Xu Hongren was defeated, Yuan Wuda was shocked and immediately sent troops out of the city to respond, but Xu Hongren, who was strict and failed the commander, panicked, and like many rookie generals, he ran there when he saw that there were many of his own people, of course, the original intention was to seek friendly protection, but the result was to drive his defeated soldiers to directly impact the front of his own reinforcements, and disrupted the queue of reinforcements for Wang Shichong for free, and also affected the morale of the reinforcements, so that the reinforcements sent by Yuan Wuda had not yet fought Wang Shichong head-on. It was already messy, and the army was terrified.

Such a big pie suddenly fell from the sky, Wang Shichong did not catch it and was not worthy of being a hero in troubled times, driving Xu Hongren's defeated soldiers as the forward, Wang Shichong's army rushed all the way, like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves, easily crushed the enemy who received Xu Hongren, and then drove the two enemy defeated soldiers to continue to move forward, all the way to the Jinyong City, like chopping melons and vegetables, crazy slashing and killing the defeated soldiers of the Yuwen army who did not have time to enter the city, and the battle was very huge.

This day is definitely the most humiliating day since the formation of the Xiaoguo Army, in the snowy wilderness, the equipment, training and combat effectiveness of the uneven Wang Shichong defeated the strong with the weak, more than 10,000 well-equipped Xiaoguo Army soldiers were cut to lose their armor, blood flowed into pools, the corpses of the Xiaoguo Army soldiers wearing good armor were covered in the snow, and the sharp weapons in their hands quickly became the killing weapons of the recruits in Wang Shichong's army, more powerful and convenient to cut down the defeated soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army. The soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army only cared about fleeing into the city, pushing and shoving in the panic, trampling on each other, and kneeling and surrendering countless times in the slogan of surrender and non-killing shouted by Wang Shichong's army.

If it weren't for Wang Shichong's order to Mingjin to withdraw his troops, Wang Shichong's army would have a glimmer of hope if he wanted to take the opportunity to enter Jinyong City, but after the ringing of the golden gong, the soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army who were silted in front of the narrow city gate were like being amnestied, and they were scrambling to hurry back to the city, but Wang Renze, who had already killed his face covered with blood, rushed back to Wang Shichong's side, and asked with a face: "Uncle, why Mingjin?" Do we have a chance to make it into the city? ”

"Take it when you see it, rabbits will bite when they are in a hurry, and we have to prevent their dying counterattack from hitting us hard." Wang Shichong replied coldly: "We only have a total of 8,000 strong soldiers in our hands, and we will be disabled now, how will we fight in the future?" First of all, we will keep our current results, and this battle is enough to make Yu Wenhua and Pifu feel painful. ”

After that, Wang Shichong ordered: "Immediately pass the order, and all the soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army who surrender are not allowed to be killed or abused." Sue them, as long as they are willing to join us, after I break the Yu culture and the traitor, I will let them return to Guanzhong to reunite with their families, and I will immediately notify my beloved son-in-law Chen Yingliang and ask him to treat their families in Guanzhong for me! "Next, the frenzied slashing like chopping melons and vegetables killed the defeated soldiers of the Yuwen army who had not had time to enter the city, and the battle was very huge.
